The Importance of Professional Cleaning for
Health and Safety

When it comes to crime scene cleanup, professional services are not optional - they’re a necessity. The importance of expert handling in these situations cannot be overstated, particularly when considering the following factors:

Risks of Bloodborne Pathogens

Crime scenes often involve the presence of blood and other bodily fluids, which can harbor dangerous pathogens. These include:

  • HIV
  • Hepatitis B and C
  • MRSA
  • Other potentially life-threatening bacteria and viruses

Our professional crime scene cleaners are trained to safely remove and dispose of these hazardous materials, eliminating the risk of exposure and infection.

Potential for Disease Transmission

Without proper cleaning and sanitization, pathogens can survive on surfaces for extended periods, posing ongoing health risks. Our rigorous decontamination process ensures that all affected areas are rendered safe for future occupancy.

Emotional Impact on Family and Friends

The trauma of a violent crime or death is overwhelming. The task of cleaning up bodily fluids and other biohazardous materials can be an additional emotional burden that no one should have to bear. Our crime scene cleaners take on this responsibility instead, allowing family and friends to focus on healing.

Legal Requirements for Proper Cleanup

In Virginia Beach and across the nation, strict regulations govern the cleanup and disposal of biohazardous materials. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) sets specific standards for handling bloodborne pathogens and other potentially infectious materials.

These regulations require:

  • Correct use of personal protective equipment (PPE)
  • Specific decontamination procedures
  • Safe disposal of biohazardous waste

Professional crime scene cleanup companies ensure compliance with OSHA standards and other local laws, protecting property owners from potential legal complications. Our trained crime scene cleaners are well-versed in these requirements, providing peace of mind and legal protection alongside our comprehensive cleaning services.

When you choose National Crime Scene Cleanup, you're taking an important step to protect yourself and others. We understand the emotional toll of these situations and are here to provide detailed care that goes beyond simply cleaning.

Here's an overview of our meticulous process:

1. Initial Assessment

  • Our experts enter the scene in OSHA-approved hazmat PPE.
  • We evaluate the area's square footage, time since the incident, and overall conditions.
  • Photos and notes are taken to ensure accurate estimates and proper restoration.
  • Clients can specify items they want removed or left untouched.

2. Area Testing

  • We test all common areas, not just visibly affected spots.
  • State-of-the-art ATP testing detects even microscopic contaminants.
  • This approach ensures we address all potential biohazards.

3. Surface Cleaning

  • We use hospital-grade, EPA-registered botanical germicides.
  • Our eco-friendly products are safe and effective, requiring no PPE to handle.
  • Surfaces are carefully treated and allow proper dwell time for maximum efficacy.

4. Final Inspection and Closure

  • We restore the site to its pre-incident condition, guided by our initial documentation.
  • A final round of testing ensures all hazardous materials have been removed.

Throughout this process, we maintain open communication with our clients, ensuring they're informed and comfortable with each step we take. Our goal isn't just to clean but to restore a sense of safety and normalcy to your property.

 

Paying for Crime Scene Cleanup Costs

 

Dealing with a crime scene is traumatic, to say the least, so we strive to make the payment one less thing to worry about. You may be surprised to learn that damage to property and personal items caused by a violent crime, or similar injury or death is often covered by property or renters insurance. We are experts in managing the insurance process to help maximize coverage and minimize or eliminate the financial burden of a professional cleanup. 

If insurance is available, we take care of everything and work directly with your insurance carrier so you can focus on your family. If insurance coverage is not available, we offer significant self-pay discounts and flexible payment options.

We also try to help uninsured and low-income customers find organizations or government resources for possible financial assistance opportunities.

For your convenience, we accept:

  • Homeowners Insurance
  • Renters Insurance
  • Credit Cards
  • Payment Plans
  • Cash & Checks
  • Assistance Funds: We can help connect you with funding sources to help with coverage gaps, deductibles, or out-of-pocket expenses.
